Other good things for heat rash treatment and to get rid of heat rash fast are.

Calamine lotion.
Antihistamine tablets.
Hydrocortisone cream – though not for children under 10 or pregnant women as they need to get advice from a doctor before using this treatment.

The most effective treatment for heat rash is to keep your skin cool and dry.

Cool down. Avoid hot and humid places.

Heat rash is a harmless but very itchy skin rash.

The heat rash causes small red spots in places where sweat collects, such as the armpits, back, under the breasts, chest, groin, elbow creases and back of the knees, and the waist.

Heat rash is common during hot, humid weather.

The heat rash may appear as blisters or red lumps.

Heat rash may also cause itchiness or a prickly feeling.

Heat rash usually goes away on its own. Use of fans and lightweight clothing can help.

The types of heat rash include.

The mildest form of heat rash is called miliaria crystallina.
A type that occurs deeper in the skin is called miliaria rubra.
Occasionally, the inflamed bumps of miliaria rubra fill with pus.
A less common form of heat rash is called miliaria profunda.

Heat rash is known for little, clear bumps filled with fluid.

The bumps with heat rash can break easily and are on the skin's surface.

Miliara rubra: You may hear this called "prickly heat" because you may have an itchy or prickly feeling along with small, inflamed bumps on the skin.

The heat rash condition is caused by narrowed or clogged sweat ducts.

This may be from things that cause sweating, such as hot, humid weather or physical activity.

The rash usually goes away on its own when sweating is prevented.

You can do this by keeping your skin cool and dry.
